THANK YOU

Apr 01, 2021

Hello friends, comrades, allies, and everyone in-between,

This is your girl, Cherie 🙋🏻‍♀️

Thank you for your trust in me, I would not be able to do this advocacy work without your encouragement and support!

Prior to becoming a full-time advocate for Hong Kong, I was starting a consultancy business - to do policy research, workshops, campaign planning. My plans were disrupted by the anti-extradition movement in 2019, and I made a decision to put my focus in supporting the activists in Hong Kong. Since the start of the democratic movement in the summer of 2019, I have been volunteering on different teams and community groups for Hong Kong. When we launched Alliance Canada Hong Kong in January 2020, I began volunteering full-time (60+ hours weekly) for ACHK. Though some parts of my business were set up, I did not fully dedicate myself to build it into a sustainable employment option. As a result, I have worked as a part-time gig contractor to make a small income to sustain my daily needs. Currently, I typically work 15~20 hours a day, jumping between school, gigs, and Hong Kong advocacy.

I started "Buy me a coffee", not because I want to make an income from the people who follow me and my work. It is really simple: this is a chance to buy me a coffee! Any donations will go towards helping with my bills and tuition.

There have been so many haters, wumaos, tankies who have targetted me, whether on social media, emails, or even in-person. Any donations here will also be a source of emotional support, I want to build a space to feel the positive supportive community.

Thank you again. If you have the financial means to donate, I would appreciate it. If not, please consider following me on various social media platforms.
